Despite the prior existence of noodles in China (2000 BC) and couscous in North Africa, spaghetti and other modern forms of pasta were first recorded in the culture of 12th century Italy.

Similar dough products existed in some form in many earlier civilizations where grain was ground, mixed, and dried. But actual pasta followed the introduction of durum wheat to Italy from Africa around the 7th century AD.

hahahahh(After editing: The origins of the word spaghetti is actually because during the Middle Ages, a Norman king saw the people making thin strips out of flour and water which people called atriya and eventually people called it trii. In Southern Italy, spaghetti is still referred to as trii.)

Spaghetti is a long, thin, cylindrical pasta of Italian origin. Spaghetti is made of semolina or flour and water. Italian dried spaghetti is made from durum wheat semolina, but outside of Italy it may be made with other kinds of flour.

Pasta in the West may first have been worked to long, thin forms in Southern Italy around the 12th Century. The popularity of pasta spread to the whole of Italy after the establishment of pasta factories in the 19th century, enabling the mass production of pasta for the Italian market.

In the United States around the end of the 1800s, spaghetti was offered in restaurants as Spaghetti Italienne (which likely consisted of extremely soggy noodles and a tomato sauce diluted with broth) and it wasn't until decades later that it came to be prepared with garlic or peppers. Canned spaghetti, kits for making spaghetti, and spaghetti with meatballs became popular, and the dish has become a staple in the U.S.

Chinese noodles pre-date Italian pasta, and traders may have introduced the food to the west. Historically, people in Italy ate pasta in the form of gnocchi-like dumplings - pasta fresca eaten as soon as it was prepared. It has been asserted that pasta was first worked to long, thin forms in Southern Italy around the 12th Century. The popularity of pasta spread to the whole of Italy after the establishment of pasta factories in the 19th century, enabling the mass production of pasta for the Italian market. Pasta is commonly associated with Italy.

In the United States around the end of the 1800s, spaghetti was offered in restaurants as Spaghetti Italienne (which likely consisted of extremely soggy noodles and a tomato sauce diluted with broth) and it wasn't until decades later that it came to be prepared with garlic or peppers. Canned spaghetti, kits for making spaghetti, and spaghetti with meatballs became popular, and the dish has become a staple in that country. (Wikipedia)
